Hello,

I would like to build a 9 meters motor boat with round form in WEST
technology in which I am experienced on small boat (6mtr). Diagonal

strip
lines of plywood should be used with epoxy and finaly laminated with

rowing.
Inboard motor is prepaired Mercedes 300D with 90PS. Form should be
displacement/semidisplacement with speed aproximately 10 knots cruising

and
12 knots max.. I found od www.tadroberts.com something for studing White
pine, Douglas fir and Yellow cedar, nice forms but still to far from

good
plan to start bulding.
So, if you got free plans or good site please notice me.
Thanks.

Hello,
yes I did. I searched and find few nice, not plans, but very good advice.
Alredy have script from Van De Stadt about building this kind of boat. The
hull form is the bigest problem because many people who think they have good
plans are actualy selling "floating boxes". Result is huge waves around and
capuccino behind boat. Of course empty fuel tank much soon than you
expected.
Thanks.
Miljenko.
